8 reasons why women stay in unhappy relationships
id: 10038609

⭕️1. You are afraid of loneliness. "Loneliness is not the worst thing in the days of trials; the worst thing is to sit back," said writer John Galsworthy. The fear of loneliness is the most common reason why we keep unhappy marriages. You need to understand that it will not disappear by itself.

You need to start observing your emotions, become aware of your fear and immerse yourself in it. It will be difficult, but it will help in healing the soul. You need to accept and love yourself. It is not always possible to do it yourself, sometimes it requires the help of a specialist or the support of loved ones. But as soon as you feel self-sufficient, the need for unhealthy relationships will disappear by itself.
The fear of loneliness is a deep natural fear. But if you learn to look him in the eye, you can get access to an inexhaustible source of energy. In solitude, you can find your true self and, having built a harmonious relationship with yourself, find a person with whom you will feel really good."

⭕️2. You don't want to leave the "comfort zone". A familiar environment in which you feel safe can also be a powerful deterrent. Often, fear of uncertainty and uncertainty about the future prevent you from breaking off an unhappy relationship. But it's worth considering: are the reasons that keep you from leaving really so important? And do they really exist? Or are you just creating situations that "temporarily" keep you from getting divorced? Maybe you want to stay just because it's easier and safer than moving on?

⭕️3. You think you won't be able to find a new partner. Another common misconception is the belief that it will be difficult or impossible to find someone more suitable. But what if your beliefs are just a consequence of past negative experiences? Ask yourself two questions:

🔸How likely is it that you will not be able to find your love, with whom you will be happy, among almost 3.5 billion men?
🔸What is the probability that you will one day find happiness in your current relationship?

Maybe it's worth taking a risk and crossing out the past, giving yourself the right to happiness and healthy relationships?

⭕️4. You feel responsible for your partner. Often a woman is convinced that the breakup of a relationship will have a painful effect on the future fate of her life partner. But think about it, is it worth investing your life in another person? And isn't it time to start thinking about yourself? Stop thinking that loving yourself is selfishness, otherwise you risk forever remaining in the role of an "eternal victim". We must remember that life is given to us only once. And in this life there is enough responsibility — for yourself, for elderly parents, for children... this is quite enough. It is not necessary to take responsibility for another adult.

⭕️5. You depend on him financially. It seems to many that this problem, of course, cannot be solved. But a huge number of women have already coped with this before you. And most of them were not incredibly gifted, brilliant and lucky at all. They just decided to take care of themselves as adults. They had an incentive — they wanted to "get out", to prove that they could cope on their own.

⭕️6. You hope that he will change. A person changes only when he wants to. It is naive to expect that a man will become different for you. Maybe it's time to stop hoping in vain and face the truth? Ask yourself the question: "Am I ready to completely change for the sake of a man?" I think most of us will answer "No" or "Why would I do that? Let him accept me for who I am."

It's the same with men. You either accept your partner for who he is, or break off this relationship. Trying to change another person is a waste of time and effort. Why waste your life on useless work?

⭕️7. You are emotionally dependent on him. Maybe your actions, appearance and lifestyle are completely aimed at pleasing a man? Or maybe you need constant confirmation that you are loved? If you answer "yes" to these questions, it means that you have become emotionally dependent. There are two reasons for this condition:

🔸Childhood emotional trauma. It seems to you that love needs to be earned." You are constantly looking for confirmation of your value from the outside.
🔸You have not learned to love yourself, so you feel comfortable only when you receive love from another person.

Of course, this is also an occasion to work with a psychotherapist. But if there is no way to seek help, try using popular psychological techniques to increase self-confidence. Accept yourself and love. Once you embark on this path, the emotional dependence on your partner will disappear.

⭕️8. You are afraid to regret leaving. Who was not afraid to make a mistake, regret the decision? But think about what you really should regret. About breaking up with an unhappy relationship, or about spending your whole life in it?


✅Value yourself and your life, learn to make decisions and don't be afraid of change. Listen to your heart and be happy. If you are in doubt whether you should try to save your family or it's time to end the relationship, contact a family psychologist who will help you make a decision more intelligently, carefully and confidently✅
